In his Pebble Hunting newsletter -- and in Bluesky posts afterward -- Sam Miller has been bemoaning not just the lack of complete games, but the unwillingness for many managers to even give it a go .
Jake Bennett added another one to the pile. Despite needing just 81 pitches to complete seven shutout innings ... and even though his single-inning high of 19 happened in the second ... and no matter the fact that he'd retired 13 of the last 14 batters he faced ... Chad Tracy didn't let him star...
Hey, what do you think is the worst thing that could have happened entering Wednesday’s matchup between the Boston Red Sox and Chicago White Sox? Willson Contreras getting injured? Yep, thought so. The Red Sox were able to push their winning streak to a season-high-tying five games with a 5-0 victory at Guaranteed Rate Field, […]
Red Sox All-Star first baseman Willson Contreras suffered an apparent injury against the Chicago White Sox. Sean McAdam of MassLive reports that Contreras exited the game, an inning after fouling a ball off his left foot.This is certainly bad news for both the Red Sox and Contreras. The 34-year-old was recently added to the American […]

It's not quite the swallows returning to Capistrano, but a celebrated annual tradition took place on Wednesday afternoon: White Sox scouting director Mike Shirley's pre-draft media availability.
There's a longer article about it coming, which won't be spoiled by revealing the obvious stuff Shirley said like the decision being down to Roch Cholowsky, Grady Emerson and Vahn Lackey, all of whom have had private meetings with the team. It was at least a little interesting to hear him give a dire...

After getting thumped, 8-1, in Tuesday’s series opener, the White Sox will get a shot at redemption and even the series against the Red Sox. Fortunately for the South Siders, Cleveland also lost, allowing Chicago to maintain its one-game lead atop the American League Central despite the lopsided defeat. It was an ugly loss, but […]
TV: NESNFirst Pitch: 7:40 p.m. ETLocation: Guaranteed Rate Field, Chicago The Red Sox will look to push their winning streak to five against the Chicago White Sox on Wednesday at Guaranteed Rate Field.

1928 The White Sox pounded out 20 hits in a 13-7 win at Washington, which remains tied for 71st-most in club history. Everyone in the lineup had at least one safety except for catcher Buck Crouse, who at least walked once in the game. Leadoff man Bill Hunnefield led the way with four hits, going […]

Ahead of this weekend’s MLB draft, Baseball America published its midseason organization talent rankings, which will give White Sox fans a sense of how much picking first matters to the system’s perceived depth. And when it comes to perceptions, the White Sox are improving them. BA bumped them up one spot from 18th to 17th,…

Continuing their road trip in Chicago, Boston opened a three-game series against the White Sox by riding another stellar start from Payton Tolle and a pair of second-inning home runs to an 8-1 victory. The win extended the club’s winning streak to four games and improved the Red Sox to 9-2 over their last 11 contests.
The White Sox (47-43) took one on the chin to open the six-game homestand with the Red Sox (41-48), getting outhit, 11-4, and blown out, 8-1. Only two batters actually got a hit for the Good Guys, with Sam Antonacci snagging three hits, and Kyle Teel driving in the sole run for the South Siders. […]
The best and healthiest versions of Noah Schultz's minor league work featured a lot of efficient, economical strike-throwing.
In that vein, a 33-pitch first inning to open up his second start since returning from the injured list, four free passes (three walks, one very painful-looking sinker to Wilyer Abreu's elbow), and 92 pitches to allow four runs over five frames in a loss to the 26th-best scoring offense in MLB was a disappointment.

After splitting a four-game series in Cleveland, the White Sox return to Chicago to wrap up the first half while hopefully maintaining sole possession of first place in the AL Central. Boston comes to town with a three-game win streak after sweeping the Los Angeles Angels, and is playing much better as a whole as […]
One of the many great things about baseball is its renewed unpredictability. Going into the season, hardly anyone was picking the White Sox — losers of over 100 games during each of the last three seasons — to win their division. Yet here we are a week into July, and they’re in first place in […]

By the time the next Farm Fortnight is published on July 21, the White Sox farm system could have a considerably different feel to it, what with the Sox selecting No. 1 overall , and first in the other 19 rounds as well over the course of Saturday and Sunday. You probably won't see those draft picks appearing on the boards below for a few weeks, because it takes a little bit of time for them to sign, then a little more time to report, but there should be a greater sense of depth, maybe even on...
Fresh off a sweep of the Los Angeles Angels (of Anaheim) the Boston Red Sox head to Chicago to take on a rejuvenated White Sox team. Possibly outsmarted by (checks notes) Chris Getz, Craig Breslow’s team has been taking a step back while the other Sox skipped the “improve’ step of the rebuilding process and […]
The Chicago White Sox have spent the past two seasons searching for real signs of progress. Winning 10 straight home series is the clearest indication yet that something has changed. Rate Field has turned into one of the toughest places to play in baseball this season. Even after dropping the finale against Kansas City, the […]

In baseball, if you take your eye off the ball for just a split second, you risk swinging right past a pitch down the middle. When spectating, it is just as easy to miss a series or two and have no idea what caused your team to remain atop the division after playing the last […]
Being transactional was a thing that JJ Picollo said this organization wanted to be when he took over the operations side as POBO/GM. We now have almost four years of trades to see if at least that part of transacting is going well as we near the 2026 trade deadline. I am not going to […]
